BWA has responded to the A432 Safer Road Consultation. This proposes road improvements along Stapleton Road and Fishponds Road, in areas under the control of both Bristol City Council and South Gloucestershire Council. The proposals include reduced speed limits, improved pedestrian crossings, narrowing junctions and new parking restrictions and road markings.
In our response, we fully support the proposals. We suggest the locations of crossings are best decided by local residents, who have the local knowledge to respond in detail, but point out it is recommended that controlled crossings should be provided at least every 400m on such busy roads.
